I recently purchased the Boss SDE 3000 EVH Delay Pedal along with other gear to make the W/D/W thing happen.
For the life of me, I cannot get it to work. For those of you that have a better grasp of the signal chain than I do, please chime in on any fix recommendations.
Here is my signal chain:

Guitar > Boss SDE Pedal Mono Input
Boss SDE Pedal Send > Front of EVH EL34 Head > Speaker Cable into 2x12 EVH Cab
EVH EL34 Head FX Send > Boss SDE Pedal Return
Boss SDE Pedal Direct L/Mono Output > EVH EL34 Head FX Return
Boss SDE Pedal EFX Left Out > Fryette 2/50/2 Stereo Amp Channel A Input
Boxx SDE Pedal EFX Right Out > Fryette 2/50/2 Stereo Amp Channel B Input
Fryette L/R Outs to Left/Right 2x12" Cabs

I have the Boss SDE Settings set to Mono In and DireEFII Out (Dry Center Cab, 100% Wet L/R Cabs)

I only get sound out of the EVH Head and 2x12 cab with the dry signal. Nothing coming out of the Fryette.

That seems right to me but make sure you are not missing a setting. Double check your cords too. It is Murphy's Law when stuff like this happens, could be that a plug inside plugged in completely, a cord is broke, etc.

I use mine in just stereo now but i can sew that you'll definitely want w/d/w with those Fryettes. Good luck!
 
You take the guitar input on your head and plug it into the send on the delay unit ?
 
I will say this, the manual is confusing for some reason. They don't explain enough.
 
I think the 4 cable method diagram they have in the manual is misleading. There are a lot of comments in other threads that a line out signal needs to be tapped at the direct out from the master amp to the cab and that signal needs to go to the SDE pedal.
